In the beautiful little village on Weiheke Island ( off Auckland ) there are plenty of restaurants. But a few steps below road level is the Courtyard Restaurant, sun drenched and private with a delightful menu of seafood , and a variety of other delicious treats for lunch or dinner. Worth a go and really nice wait staff.

Absolutely overrated! What kind of wine tasting is it, if the waitress canât explain the sort of wine? Itâs an absolutely tourist rip off! Go to Mudbrick and join Bob! He knows his business!

Taken my mum out to lunch, will definitely be back again. One of the best meals on the island. Would definitely be back sometime soon. The service from the staff is amazing and not to mention the quality of the food. Out of all of the restaurants on the island this would have to be my favourite.

I have visited the Cable Bay Restaurant on Waiheke numerous times as a casual diner for both lunch and dinners. As I live in Auckland most of the year I visit Waiheke often over the long summers as it is one of my favourite spots to go in all of NZ.Cable Bay has never failed to turn on an excellent spread, it is at the upper end of the market price wise and you certainly get what you pay for, great wines as well.

I pre-booked an event at wild on waiheke for 20 people, so easy to organise through the team online. When we arrived at Wild on Waiheke a few weeks later the staff were absolutely incredible, made us feel so welcome and relaxed, really attentive and couldn't have asked for more! Food was amazing and everyone super impressed with the pre-ordered spread we had. Would recommend in a flash!

Just a lovely lunch. We decided on the degustation menu for a treat and were not disappointed. The food was superb, interesting , local and light. I have been converted to pork belly , the beetroot Kostas, were delightful. This is absolute fine dining and I encourage to take your time to savour all the delicate flavours. We were still going 3 hours later. The service was perfect: polite, knowledgeable and warm. We scored a pearler of a spring day. We came by Sea link ferry because we did not know better, their is the local one much closer .Thank you for a terrific lunch .

When eating at The Shed, my husband and I remarked that the best way to nail a casual dining experience is to really nail the food. The space is charming, the service is impeccable but low key, and the food is fabulous.
